I would say no. I think not because the frogs might be big enough to try to eat the geckos. With frogs you ALWAYS have to decide what it will try to eat.

With these smaller geckos, about the only frogs that are safe to share a tank are the smaller dart frogs, aka "thumbnails" -- but there are some beautiful frogs in that group! They eat fruit flies, so you'd have to raise those if you're not already, but it's pretty easy -- I jut buy dry media that I mix with hot water. Most dart frog places sell it. FFs are also good food for baby geckos

However, one thing I have noticed when housing frogs and geckos together is that the stress level goes up a bit, so it's not the ideal breeding situation for either species.
